Clear pairs of digits that are the same or add up to ten. They have to be neighbours — side by side, stacked, diagonal, or across the end of a row — and cleared cells don't block the line.

How to play number match
Tap one number, then tap another. If they pair, both clear.
A pair is two digits that are equal (4 and 4) or that add up to ten (4 and 6).
They also have to be neighbours along one line: side by side, stacked in the same column, on a diagonal, or wrapped from the end of one row to the start of the next.
Cleared cells are see-through. As the board empties, numbers that started far apart become neighbours.
A row that empties completely is removed, which pulls the rest of the board closer together.
Out of pairs? Add rows copies every surviving number to the bottom. You get five for the whole game.
Clear the entire board to win. The daily board is identical for every player and resets at 00:00 UTC.
Three habits that clear more boards
Clear from the top down. Emptying an entire top row removes it from the board and shortens every line below it.
Hoard your add-rows. Each one roughly doubles what is left on the board. Spending one early to dodge a bit of scanning is how a winnable board turns into a stranded one.
Check the wrap before you panic. The last digit of a row and the first of the next are neighbours — it is the pair people miss most.
